1. (c). The corrective lens for a farsighted eye is a converging lens, while that for a nearsighted eye is a diverging lens. Since a converging lens is required to form a real image of the Sun on the paper to start a fire, the campers should use the glasses of the farsighted person.
2. (a). We would like to reduce the minimum angular separation for two objects below the angle subtended by the two stars in the binary system. We can do that by reducing the wavelength of the light—this in essence makes the aperture larger, relative to the light wavelength, increasing the resolving power. Thus, we would choose a blue filter.

Answers to Conceptual Questions
2. The objective lens of the microscope must form a real image just inside the focal point of the eyepiece lens. In order for this to occur, the object must be located just outside the focal point of the objective lens. Since the focal length of the objective lens is typically quite short ( )~1 cm , this means that the microscope can focus properly only on objects close to
the end of the barrel and will be unable to focus on objects across the room.
4. For a lens to operate as a simple magnifier, the object should be located just inside the focal point of the lens. If the power of the lens is +20.0 diopters, it focal length is
( ) ( )1.00 m 1.00 m 20.0 0.050 0 m 5.00 cmf = = + = =P The object should be placed slightly less than 5.00 cm in front of the lens.
6. The aperture of a camera is a close approximation to the iris of the eye. The retina of the eye corresponds to the film of the camera, and a close approximation to the cornea of the eye is the lens of the camera.
8. You want a real image formed at the location of the paper. To form such an image, the object distance must be greater than the focal length of the lens.
10. Under low ambient light conditions, a photoflash unit is used to insure that light entering the camera lens will deliver sufficient energy for a proper exposure to each area of the film. Thus, the most important criterion is the additional energy per unit area (product of intensity and the duration of the flash, assuming this duration is less than the shutter speed) provided by the flash unit.
12. The angular magnification produced by a simple magnifier is ( )25 cmm f= . Note that
this is proportional to the optical power of a lens, 1 f=P , where the focal length f is expressed in meters. Thus, if the power of the lens is doubled, the angular magnification will also double.

25.6 (a) The intensity is a measure of the rate at which energy is received by the film per unit area of the image, or

and x
. Consider an object with
horizontal and vertical dimensions
yh h as shown at the right. If
the vertical dimension intercepts angle θ, the vertical dimension of the image is yh qθ′ = , or yh q′ ∝ .
Similarly for the horizontal dimension, xh q′ ∝ , and the area of the image is 2
image x yA h h′ ′= q∝ . Assuming a very distant object, q f≈ , so 2imageA f∝ and we
conclude that 21I f∝ . The intensity of the light reaching the film is also proportional to the area of the lens and hence, to the square of the diameter of that lens, or 2DI ∝ . Combining this with our earlier conclusion gives

25.48 (a) Since this eye can already focus on objects located at the near point of a normal eye (25 cm), no correction is needed for near objects. To correct the distant vision, a corrective lens (located 2.0 cm from the eye) should form virtual images of very distant objects at 23 cm in front of the lens (or at the far point of the eye). Thus, we must require that when 23 cmq = − p →∞ . This gives
